Add up product count, when there is more than one item
When working with corporate customers, conferences or groups; the number of same items on a bill, make for very lengthy bills which are difficult to read and process. We would like to see that when there is more than one item of the same product, that these are added up.
For example, instead of 10 lines with 1 drink in each line. We want to see 1 line with 10 drinks and the total amount to be paid.

Send invoice directly to company profile
Our invoices need to be emailed directly to companies (i.e. Travel Agents or Businesses) directly. Currently you can only email to Customer Profiles, yet all the contact information for companies are stored in the Company profile. We move chargeback items to a Company Bill, so it seems illogical to then not be able to email the invoice directly to that company?
We waste so much valuable time saving the PDF down and manually sending the invoice through Gmail. There is a lot of room for human error here, where invoices don't ever get sent out.

billing
The billing has changed and a lot of colleagues get confused using this new billing method. It is harder to see the companions on the same room when 2 guest are travelling together in one room. Sometimes the charges from F&B are booked on 2 different names in the same reservation. This can be easily forgotten on check out when very busy.
The room number is also not visible in the billing. It would be nice to see a name and roomnumber. (sometimes there are 2 bookings under the same name)We would love to change back to the old…
65 votesHello,
Thank you for your comments and feedback regarding the billing screen.
We have released an update resolving issues where the room names and room numbers were missing from the billing screen.
The new billing screen has 2 main views, group billing and individual billing.
From the group billing screen, you will be able to view a list of all bill items for reservation owners and companions. The group billing screen can be accessed from the billing tab on the top right hand side of the reservations screen.
The group billing screen shows all bill items for a group for the current stay period. Whereas as the individual billing screen (which can be accessed by selecting the billing icon next to a guests name), will show you all bill items from current, previous and future reservations.
To learn more about the new group billing screen, please click on the link…

Rename a bill preview
For paymaster accounts we organize the receivable invoices per month or prepare a group of bill for a special wire transfer amount. Having the option of renaming a bill preview will be very useful when we transfer a receivable invoice from a customer profile to the paymaster account. We won't confuse about the right bill preview to transfer anymore.

Billing Tab - Show Rates vs Tax Breakdown
It would be really helpful if, on the billing tab, you can include the rate vs tax breakdown when we expand a billing item. It is causing our staff to be confused when posting adjustments and we are, as a result, paying close to $1000 in taxes more than what we collect for most of our properties.

Remove payment button for Unassigned in Billing screen
Please remove the option to charge the customer card against all items under Unassigned.
This is causing operational problems, because is much easier to charge fully for current and future stays all together by mistake or while in a rush. The only way to prevent wrong charging is to manually move the charges to a New Bill.
This is a technical disadvantage.Old billings screen was able to prevent this as products for future reservations were kept on the left hand side. There was no option to collect payment against them.

New Billing Adjustment
I don't mind the new billing screen, once you get used to it, it is quite easy to use.
One thing I would suggest is that in the new billing screen, we move a lot of items to Paymasters and we now can't see which item belongs to which guestIt used to show as:
Stay 1129 (Jane Smith, 1/12/2020-2/12/2020, Standard Room, 16) - $150Now shows as:
Past, 1/12/2020-2/12/2020 - 1129 x1 - $15011 votesHello Madelaine,
We apologies for the delayed response. However, we are happy to inform you that the functionality that you requested has been released.
You are currently able to see the name of a the original guest who owned a bill before it was moved to a paymaster account.
We hope this update will be helpful for your day to day tasks.
Kind regards,

New billing needs to be removed or improved !
The new billing feature is awful. it is not easy to read or negotiate at all.
I can see that a lot of people feel the same and Mews resistance to change this back. Please listen to your users. I do not see how this new features improves anything at all.
If a guest has a lot of bookings coming up it is even worse.
6 votesHello Maria,
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us.
Since you shared your comments with us 2 months ago we have been working continuously to improve the new billing screen in order to ensure that it not only meets the standards of the old billing screen, but opens up the opportunity to begin surpassing the functionality feature set of the old billing screen.
We have split the billing screen into 2 views. A group view accessible by selecting the “Billing” tab on the top right had side of the reservation screen and an individual view accessible by selecting the billing icon next to a guests name, or by selecting “all guest bills” from the group billing screen.
The group billing screen gives you an overview of all reservations and companions within a group for the current stay period. Whereas the individual billing screen will show you all bill items…

Meals for children
When we charge the breakfast, the price is the same for the adults of for the children we can't make a difference. It'd b great if we can fix this: the products are adjusted with the number of adults/children in the room

We are very happy to inform you that you can now modify the number of products added to a reservation, which will allow you to price products differently for children upon reservation creation.

To have a “Big Warning” when the operator tries to generate a Bill with an empty NIF in Spain
We´ve found this link informing that the NIF is mandatory for bill above 400EUR in Spain, but to use this situation the Bill should have two different templates and would turn more complicated for daily operations.
https://help.mews.com/en/articles/4430685-closing-a-bill-above-400-eur-for-spanish-customersThe request is to have a “Big Warning” when the operator tries to generate a Bill with an empty NIF. So the operator can intentionally decide if it is really desired to generate a Bill without NIF and avoid human error missing the NIF, because by default the NIF is empty even when the user fields are already filled by the system.
Thanks1 voteThis is available, and an error is prompted when the NIF is missing. More information can be found here: https://help.mews.com/s/article/how-do-i-close-a-bill-above-400-eur-for-spanish-customers?language=en_US

Issues with creating invoices and with the booking for other people integration
As promised here is the video with the 2 issues that our reception team will be delighted with if they are improved :)
The first one: when creating invoices, see timecode 1:17, Pam needs to highlight and copy the booking reference number from that booking on the dashboard tab for that booking, she then needs to go to the billing tab and manually paste the number so then the invoice can be generated for the customer. Now imagine having to do this for every single booking every day. On friday she will need to do this over 120 times, this…
7 votesHello from the Mews product team. This feature is available and today, it is possible to view relevant booking reference numbers on bills and they display as confirmation number, origin or directly on the relevant line item in the billing screen.
Thank you for sharing your idea!

The name of the invoice should be "invoice" (in english) not "factuur" ;-)
Mews should not impose anything on our official document. Moreover, if Mews wants to make a change on the official documents, they should warn us before.
Hence we notice that our invoices and pro-format are now labelled "Factuur" (dutch word for invoice). But we do not use dutch in our system.
Forcing us to use dutch language on our english or french invoices is just
not right.8 votes -
Add relative adjustment field before closing bills & invoices
This property was asking for a way to add a discount percentage to an invoice before they close the bill in a way they will not have to calculate it themselves manually. Right now the only way to do that is to create a product but they will still need to calculate the total price after the discount.
